An excellent trip with glorious weather – we were so lucky! 2 fab guides, great cycling, amazing food and mucho vino tinto! Thoroughly recommended and brilliant off road on the camino at times made for a different experience.
Climbing to the top of the hill at O'Cebreiro and arriving above the clouds - a spectacular view and worth the slog!
Javier and Alfonso were great company and did an excellent job to all us English!
Do some training beforehand!
Excellent trip, fantastic experience and breath taking views!
Definitely the walk across the highest point on Madeira. "Walking" over the clouds and having coffee at Pico Ruivo.
Andre was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about fauna and flora, enthusiastic , charismatic and a great leader who kept the group together at all times.
I would strongly recommend to bring walking poles, especially for day 4 and 5 walks.
Jordan exceeded our wildest expectations, its fantastic with vast romantic deserts and exotic mountains and incredible history. Everyday provided new experiences. The main tourist sites of Petra, Little Petra and Gerasa are more than breathtaking and were almost deserted. The people are very friendly. Our group of 8 cyclists was accompanied by 2 leading members of Jordans’ National Cycling team, a mechanic, guide, 3 armed policemen and others. We never felt at any risk. The need to cover up for modesty was rarely apparent. Hotels were reasonable and food was good. Trek lightweight hybrid bikes were excellent. You must be fit, one of our group who was fit but had not cycled since childhood had to walk occasionally. Cycling varies between easy; technically difficult descents; and steep rolling hills. Temperatures were between 34 and about 40.
Petra & Gerasa were fantastic. The meal in the Jordanian home was great. The group was great fun
Allah was extremely knowledgable on a huge range of subjects, brilliant, amusing, always friendly. He made the trip what it was.
Jordan may be more expensive than you expect particularly if you want to drink alcohol, which is available in most hotels. There are off-licences in Aqaba.
My partner and I took this trip to see a part of the world that we had always been interested in exploring. We also love bike riding; it is a great way to explore new places at a different pace. This trip will suit anyone who is fit and enjoys seeing the countryside from a different perspective.
Where to start! To name a few: Riding through Czech Canada (and making it up the hills), riding past the existing check points at the borders, cycling through open pastures and wine country, biking in West Hungary on the off road tracks. Hearing stories of those who attempted to cross the iron curtain.
Jan was fantastic. He had a wealth of knowledge and passion for history- almost no question he couldn't answer! His ability to manage 15 different people in our larger than usual group was admirable. He prepped the group each morning to ensure riders were ready for the day- this was helpful.
Do some hill riding before you go- the first 3 days of riding includes some hills. Also be sure to bring attire for all weather conditions- we had rail, hail and shine. Don't be put off by the distances or undulating terrain- you develop fitness as the trip progresses!
A great week with good company. The hotel is in a beautiful area, surrounded by green hills and pastures. The walks were very good, some quite steep and long, but with plenty of breaks to get your breath back. It was lovely to see the rural life and learn about the history of the area and country.
Seeing the wild bears from the hide in the woods and the horse and cart ride with the one month old foal trotting beside us.
Udo was excellent, very knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna. Good sense of humour.
Whilst the hotel was excellent, staff and food good, there were 3 dogs chained up outside and they barked intermittently throughout the night, so it was hard to get a good night's sleep. Would denitely advise taking earplugs. Also walking poles very useful on the rough mountain paths. A couple of the days were very long and a long time between meals, so be prepared and take snacks.
Overall very good trip, much hotter and more humid than anticipated. Plenty of afternoon free time to recover. Hotels very good with Cherish Hotel at Hue particularly memorable. Having used overnight train services with Exodus previously, overnight train this trip not pleasant.
Difficult to agree on one aspect, but all aspect of Halong Bay trip and Mekong Delta homestay stand out - scenery, food, hospitality, management/information. Disappointed can no longer swim in Halong Bay.
Group varied greatly in age and expectation. Cong, our Group Leader, handled this challenge well. At restaurants learnt to take his recommendations - squid stuffed with pork at Hoi An outstanding!
Cycle ride may appear daunting for some - go for it. Well organised, mainly flat, good bikes (helmets included), super scenery, paddy fields, river fishing and local life.
Wonderful location, wonderful people, wonderful walks, wonderful leader, wonderful weather – what more could you want!
It was all great.
Fun, hard working, caring and we all loved him. In the end we could not even find out breakfast without him it was all made so easy peasy.
Take walking poles they really help and a sunhat.
Lovely part of the world with stunning scenery. The wild flowers were at their best when I visited in May. A very different pace of life to home but interestingly even the cow herds on the upper meadows had their smartphones. My son loved the first and last days best with climbing under/over all the fallen trees and fording the fast running river – such a contrast to the ridge walks and alpine meadows. Our guide Neli was very knowledgeable about the area, flowers and birdlife, and very patient with all our questions. It would have been very difficult to find some of the paths on our own. The walking pace was accurately described as leisurely. The accommodation was comfortable, the wifi better than at home, the food excellent and the beer just so cheap!
The visits to the caves were an added bonus and such a contrast after our walks.
Neli was a star throughout.
You don't need very much currency with you for this trip, but make sure you get it in advance - there is no access to banks, ATMs etc once you are there..
This was a brilliant holiday. I’ve been on a number of Exodus trips before but this was my first cycling trip with Exodus. It won’t be my last!
We enjoyed good company, good weather and good cycling, with plenty of stops at interesting places, and we were very well looked after by Yiannis and Angelos.
I loved the coastal ride to Epidaurus. Although it was hot and much of it uphill, the views were stunning.
Yiannis did a great job. I thought he achieved a good balance between keeping the group together and letting people go at their own pace.
May was hot! I would be wary of June as it might be too hot for the cycling to be pleasant.
Biking Sardainia is a moderate challenge if you bike regularly. The countryside and the view points are gorgeous. The beaches in May are empty and the water cool but ideal for a refreshing swim. I had the best spaghetti and pizza of my life! Viva Sadainia.
Climbing in a very hot temperature an 8 km steady steep hill...the most difficult moments are always the most inspirational ones. J'aime les parcours qui offrent des defis...et les montées sont parfois difficiles en Sardaigne. MIs c'est ce qui rend le voyage inoubliable.
We had to guides with totLly different styles...and that was great because we could relate to one of them depending on our spirit of the day.
Biking or taking spinning classes is a must to fully enjoy this trip. And don't forget your bathing suit...the beaches are exceptionnal.
